Adapted from a Facebook reel by Honestly Amanda. Brown sugar is granulated sugar with the molasses stirred back in — one tablespoon per cup for light, two for dark. It is naturally gluten-free, and it takes about five minutes with a fork. Not yet made in our kitchen.
Homemade Brown Sugar
- 200 g granulated sugar 1 cup
- 20 g molasses 1 Tbsp, for light brown sugar — or 40 g (2 Tbsp) for dark brown sugar
- Put the sugar in a medium bowl.
- Pour the molasses over the sugar: 1 tablespoon for light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons for dark.
- Mix with a fork, working out the lumps, until the color is even and the sugar looks like the bagged kind.
- Use right away, or store airtight at room temperature.
